Re: [NEWS] "Land Of The Lost" reboot in development at Netflix

It says "reboot", but thanks to lazy jouranlism, that could mean a
remaek, a resurrection, a sequel, a prequel, a spin-off, or an actual
reboot.

   'Land Of The Lost' Series Reboot In Works
   At Netflix From Legendary Television
   -----------------------------------------
   Netflix is looking to remake another classic TV series.
   The streamer has closed a deal with Legendary Television
   for Land of the Lost, a reboot of Sid and Marty Krofft's
   1974 sci-fi adventure show, Deadline has learned.
>
   Sid and Marty Krofft as well as Marty's daughter Deanna
   Krofft Pope, who is COO at their company, will produce
   the project, which is in very early stages, sources said.
   Search is underway for a writer. Reps for Netflix and
   Legendary TV declined comment.
>
   Land of the Lost centers on a father, Rick, and his two
   children who accidentally go through a portal and find
   themselves trapped in a world inhabited by dinosaurs,
   including a Tyrannosaurus rex they nickname Grumpy;
   primate-like people named Pakuni, one of whom, Cha-Ka,
   they befriend; and reptilian humanoids called Sleestak.
>
   Land of the Lost originated as a children's series which
   aired on NBC Saturday mornings for three seasons from
   1974 to 1976, with CBS giving it a summer run in 1985 and
   1987. In it, Rick was played by Spencer Milligan, with
   Wesley Eure and Kathy Coleman as his kids, Will and Holly,
   respectively. Stop-motion animation was used for some of
   the creatures.
>
   Despite its relatively short run, Land of the Lost
   achieved cult status, keeping the title relevant. That led
   to a 1991 series remake, which aired for two seasons on
   ABC, and a 2009 feature film starring Will Ferrell. Sid
   and Marty Krofft produced both.
>
   While it does not have the extensive library traditional
   TV studios do, Netflix has taken on a few classic series
   titles. The streamer is currently filming a new Little
   House On the Prairie and previously rebooted Lost In Space
   and One Day At a Time.
>
   Legendary Television's current slate includes Dune: Prophecy
   at HBO, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters at Apple TV+ and the
   animated Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft at Netflix as
   well as Tomb Raider and Pacific Rim live-action series and
   an adaptation of Girls and Their Horses with Nicole Kidman -
   all in development at Amazon.
